Recovering a File

If Text Editor is interrupted due to a system error, it attempts to save your changes in a recovery file in your current folder. The recovery file is named #filename#, where filename is the name of the document. If you had never named your document, the recovery file name is #UNTITLED#.

To Recover a File

Start Text Editor.

Open the recovery file.

Save the document using your original file name or provide a new name for a previously unsaved document.
